Democrats only needed to flip three seats to gain the majority in the House — they picked up 44 in a massive GOP shellacking
House Speaker Mike Johnson has blasted voters for making the “wrong choice” on Election Day last week.
Donald Trump, Johnson and other Republican leaders were tasked with keeping the majority in Congress, but despite their best efforts, Democrats swept the midterms in a defeat so crushing that it was dubbed a blue tsunami.
Johnson shared regret for the GOP’s shellacking, but not the blame. Instead, the Republican leader pinned it on the Americans who voted against his party on Tuesday.
When asked by CNN’s Manu Raju on Capitol Hill Monday whether Trump needs to “course correct” after the midterm losses, Johnson said, “I’m not going to tell the president how to do his job. We have an incredible record of the first two years of his term, and I expect more success in the days ahead.”
I will always love this gif.
Man I’d love to kick the shit out of this assshole.
In terms of most punchable I’d put Stephen Miller as #1 and Elon as #2. He’s a strong contender for #3
I’d throw Trump in there, but somehow it’d be both elder and child abuse.
I think your #1 and 2 are definitely in the right spots. The earth and everyone on it would be better off if those 2 were gone.
I just….i really need Stephen miller to know what it feels like to have his skull bones broken. His rib cage too.
“Torture is a celebration of life and human dignity” - Stephen Miller
He 100% is into that kind of thing. You don’t turn out like this without playing up the hateable punchable dork asshole that enjoys being beat up and mocked as his kink. That schmarmy demeanor says it all.
You have a point.
Didn’t voters already do that?
Give him the 'ol Fight Club face-rearangement!
I 2nd this comment!
GOP and DNC taking turns every election being this meme.
Says the man that tracks when he and his son masturbate.
Hey, no kink shaming.
Unless they like it of course.
Makes it hotter
The sense of entitlement is astounding.
What an interesting thing to say, for someone whose job is literally to represent the voters and enact the will of the people. He is literally a Congressional Representative.
“I’m not going to tell the president how to do his job. We have an incredible record of the first two years of his term, and I expect more success in the days ahead.”
Johnson expects SO much success, in fact, that he is stepping down from leadership in the new Congress altogether, and refused the minority leader position that was offered him.
This dudes entire tenure has been pretending (charitable?) to be clueless about current events to avoid accountability and now he’s got some pointed thoughts on being held accountable.
In other news: Voters blast Mike Johnson for making wrong choices everyday for the last 2+ years.
Voters also blast Mike Johnson’s mom for making the wrong choice 55 years ago.
knowing conservatives she didn’t have a choice. Maybe she could have offered anal instead. Though looking at Mike, maybe she did do that.
I blast his parents too. You guys really screwed up with this one.
Mike Johnson is stepping down as his party’s leader in the House of Representatives. I would say voters absolutely made the right choice!
Nah, I hate this little toad, and his arrogant patronization. He can fuck all the way back off to Louisiana.
Shut up bitch
That’s the beauty of democracy. The people choose what they want, not what those in power want.
Fuck you Mike. You conceded one of the three branches of Governmental power to the President. You are one of the biggest failures of Congressman that has ever served.
Eat shit mikey. Have fun watching porn with your son.
To be able to say that seriously is an admission that you do not believe in democracy.
So true.
Except for not at all?
Democracy is not a system of truth seeking. It’s a compromise.
Nobody said this is about truth seeking.
If an elected official thinks he can tell the voters that they were wrong for not choosing his party, that is anti-democracy
No, it isn’t. Goddamn y’all are dumb as shit sometimes.
What, you think Trump was the right choice in 2024 because he won both the popular vote and ec?
Partisan morons who decide whether a statement is true or just an opinion based solely on who says it, lmao.
Nice strawman. I said elected officials telling voters they’re wrong is anti-democracy. No more, no less.
You’re adding these layers of “whether something someone said was true” and “partisanship.”
FUN FACT: Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Every. Word.
Compromise with fascists is fascism.
piss off Mikey, don’t you have to monitor your sons porn habits?
It’s almost like ALL conservatives are pedophiles.
